I have a weekly system health check cron job that includes revdep-rebuild -pi (hint to Alan: that's the correct way to have revdep-rebuild ignore the results of previous runs). It rarely finds anything. There's still the occasional glitch with preserved-libs, but I fons it works ninety-lots % of the time, and it is far better than the "let it break then try to fix it approach" of the days we needed to rely on revdep-rebuild. --=20 Neil Bothwick God is real, unless specifically declared integer. --Sig_/Gtei/_.YOpdpqauIkNc87KO Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iEYEARECAAYFAldKrycACgkQum4al0N1GQNRvACcCyZFXqHKd5U9fVo4ljKWVE/P +vEAoJqW/uLv57AG/lImeMpaHDBtmmy1 =DuR7 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Sig_/Gtei/_.YOpdpqauIkNc87KO--
